Laura Perkins, dreaming of motherhood, hesitated to embark on fertility treatments after an exhausting year of trying to conceive. Seeking solace, she journeyed to Nicaragua with her husband to contemplate their next steps. During their trip, Laura shared her fertility concerns with church members and received a profound message from her pastor. She recounted, “She told me she knew God had big plans for me; she didn’t know what, but it would be big.”

Following a round of intrauterine insemination, Laura was convinced it had not been successful. To her astonishment, it had indeed worked, and during a routine check-up, the nurse delivered surprising news: her beta levels indicated a multiple pregnancy. Anticipating twins or triplets, the biggest shock arrived during the first ultrasound. The doctor, peering at the screen, announced, “I just counted 5.” But the surprise didn’t end there. The doctor continued, “Hold on, I just found a sixth one.”

The perplexed couple was now part of the remarkable 1% chance of conceiving sextuplets. Faced with a momentous decision, they resolved to keep all the babies, despite the slim chances of survival. The doctor pledged unwavering support to help Laura reach the 28-week milestone, defying the odds.
